Ra. Correa et al., Positional and configurational separation of fatty acid isomers by micro reversed-phase liquid chromatography with an Ag+-containing mobile phase, J CHROMAT A, 848(1-2), 1999, pp. 83-93
Different positional and configurational fatty acids, derivatised into the
phenacylesters, were analyzed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC
) on micropacked fused-silica columns with an Ag+-containing mobile phase.
The pi-complexation strength was evaluated by plotting the selectivity coef
ficients (alpha Ag+) as a function of [Ag+]. The equilibrium constants (K*)
were determined by means of the hyperbolic dependence of the capacity fact
ors on [Ag+]. Different fat hydrolysates and margarines taken at different
stages of palm oil hydrogenation were analyzed. Data obtained with micropac
ked RPLC and capillary GC for the determination of the cis/trans ratio of m
onoenoic acids are compared. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights rese
